You will be remembered when you are dead.
They will place photos of you next to their beds,
Sing praises as they reminisce the life you had led --
The great thoughts that had sprung from your head.
You will be iconized;
You will be idolized;
You will be surreptitiously vitalized.
Yes, you will be remembered when you are dead.
But is it not a shame, then,
That this could not happen
Until your veins wept and bled?
